Abstract
The author reviews both the methodology of ultrastructure detns. and the results obtained with some typical protoplasmic systems. Among direct methods, microscopy with u.-v. light and with electron beams are taken up; among indirect methods, polarization optics, X-ray and electron diffraction, and interference methods with the visible or near-visible spectrum. The protoplasmic systems considered are muscle fibers, cilia, astral and spindle fibers, chromosomes, the myelin sheath of nerve, and cell and nuclear membranes.This publication has 29 references indexed in Scilit:
